The Cyber Security track is designed to equip students with the critical skills necessary to protect networks, data, and systems from a constantly evolving landscape of cyber threats. With a focus on real-world applications, this track covers essential topics such as threat detection, risk management, encryption, and incident response.
Students will gain hands-on experience in combating security vulnerabilities, preparing them to tackle the challenges of safeguarding digital assets in today’s interconnected world.
Learn how to configure, manage, and optimise essential security technologies, including firewalls, VPNs, and intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS). You will also gain expertise in designing secure network architectures to defend against unauthorised access, data breaches, and cyberattacks.
By mastering these techniques, you will develop the skills to proactively secure network infrastructures and ensure reliable, secure communications in modern enterprise environments.
Gain hands-on experience in penetration testing, adopting the mindset of a hacker to identify vulnerabilities in systems, networks, and applications. This module will teach you how to assess the security posture of an organisation by simulating real-world cyberattacks.
You will learn to use various ethical hacking tools and techniques to detect weaknesses before malicious actors can exploit you, providing invaluable skills for securing critical infrastructures and data.
Dive deep into encryption algorithms, public key infrastructure (PKI), and secure communication protocols. You will have an understanding of how cryptographic techniques are used to protect sensitive data during transmission and storage.
By exploring symmetric and asymmetric encryption methods, digital signatures, and key management practices, you will develop the expertise required to implement robust data protection strategies and ensure confidentiality and integrity in modern digital systems.
Learn to address cloud-specific security challenges, such as securing multi-tenant environments and ensuring data privacy across various cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Also, you will learn to implement effective security strategies, including identity and access management (IAM), encryption, and network security measures.
As a result, you will gain hands-on experience with securing cloud-based infrastructures, preparing you to mitigate cloud security risks and safeguard critical data in scalable, virtualised environments.
Become familiar with global security standards and frameworks, such as ISO 27001, NIST, GDPR, and PCI-DSS, which are essential for maintaining compliance and data protection in today’s regulatory landscape. This module will teach you to implement security measures that align with these standards ensuring organisations meet legal and regulatory requirements.
By understanding governance frameworks, you will be equipped to oversee security protocols and drive best practices in cybersecurity compliance.
By the end of the Cyber Security track, students will be proficient in identifying and mitigating security risks, implementing effective countermeasures, and adhering to industry compliance standards. With hands-on experience across various domains, including network security, cryptography, ethical hacking, and cloud security, students will be fully prepared to embark on successful careers as cybersecurity professionals, safeguarding organizations against the growing threat landscape in today’s digital world.
